Default Original Dota


I started DotA really late, the first version i played was right before TC and Batrider came out. The versions before that, i had no clue how it was. I'm just curious, is there any database out there that shows each hero and their skills? I want to know what each hero used to be like and etc. the oldest thing from when i started that i remember is when Dusa's ulti was purge and she had a chain lightning, razor had chain lightening and his ulti was the something like his current passive. forgot so much already.

Yep. There's a humorous little list of the "WTF heroes" of the past that were insanely imbalanced. Someone will post it shortly.

EDIT: Nevermind. Those guides are all on D-A.com, which was taken down..

http://www.playdota.com/forums/36256...e--old-heroes/

http://www.playdota.com/forums/26951...-heroes--dota/

Anyway. There used to be a lot of different crazy heroes that would stun for 10 seconds (with 10sec CD), have an ult that just changes their team from Sent to Scourge (making the game a 6 v 4), or did global stuns (old chrono).. and other crazy stuff.. like Riki used to have a non-channeling death ward (like Witch Doctor's) that he could drop, IIRC.

blink dagger didn't have the 3 second unusable period thingy.
and yea storm and naix were different...
linkens sphere had a 60 second cooldown i think? and was completely useless...
manta style was built using diffusal blade.
cm had a shitty non global aura which was skilled very rarely.
thats all i remember
